CITIZEN QUESTION AND COMMENT PERIOD Mr. Vance Jochim, a resident of Tavares who writes a blog called FiscalRangers.com, expressed that he was glad Tab 3 was moved from the Consent Agenda, and stated that he was concerned about this because there was not enough information about the organization that would be receiving the $75,000 grant. He added that even though it was federally funded, he was not comfortable giving this money away, especially since the County would not retain any ownership rights on the property. ***** Mr. Jake Farley, Mayor of Astatula, addressed the Board stating that he wanted to continue to pursue the need for County fire services in Astatula. He explained that the town has had a 40 percent growth in the last decade and the call volumes continue to increase, so he wanted to remind the Board how important the fire station is. ***** Mr. Doug Koskey, a resident of Astatula, also discussed the concern of not having fire services in Astatula. He emphasized that fire protection was one of the very basic services, and because they were so far from a fire station, their fire ratings were low. He explained that it was hard to draw residents and businesses to Astatula because of the increased insurance ratings and the low fire ratings, and expressed that by having a fire station in this town, their fire ratings would increase, and they would hopefully be able to grow a community to help contribute to the overall County funds. ***** Mr. David Cimini, a resident of Clermont, addressed the Board in regards to the landfill on CR 455, stating that he and his neighbors were concerned about the odor from the landfill as well as the water quality. He explained that he has been dealing with code enforcers for many years, and this has yet to be resolved, so he would like for the Board to address this issue to see if there is in fact a health risk with this landfill. |
